AQ Labrador 26 MK III is a 3-way column speaker system with bass reflex inspired by the legendary L26. Enclosure is made of a combination of MDF and particleboard panels. Excellent rigidity was achieved by combining flat and cross braces together with proprietary sandwich baffle. Rigidity and vibration resistance is one of the cornerstones of sound quality for L26MKIII.

A pair of Scan-Speak woofers with large 8“ (200mm) carbon fiber cones symmetrically suspended on rubber surround with a powerful magnet attached to a cast aluminum frame is an essential element to achieving powerful and accurate bass. Bass reflex port is located on the front panel to allow for near wall placement without audible distortion. Midrange driver uses the same elements as the bass drivers: rigid aluminum basket, rubber surround, linear motor and a lightweight carbon fiber cone. It is also from the famous Danish speaker drivers manufacturer Scan-Speak. The midrange driver is mounted in a separate acoustic chamber, which adds to the total loudspeaker internal rigidity. The 1“ (25mm) fabric soft dome ferrofluid cooled tweeter is one of the best models from the Vifa manufacturer. Crossover point to point wiring is used throughout and precision polyester capacitors are secured to a carrier panel with solder points. Internal wiring cable is from AudioQuest Type4 and all internal connections are soldered.

The speaker is equipped with a removable cover frame, which is fixed by the integrated magnets. Removable grille uses an invisible magnet system that contributes to visually clean front baffle. The speaker comes fitted with optional adjustable spikes.Labrador 26MKIII is a very versatile speaker with sound that can brilliantly reproduce any musical genre.
